Discover the SECRET to ELITE level Puck Control!
How to Control the Puck like the NHL's best players is the go-to video for learning how to stickhandle like an NHL Superstar. Built on top of the Downhill Skating "how to skate" fundamentals, these stickhandling mechanics are taken directly from hours of video analysis of Sidney Crosby, Nathan MacKinnon, Connor McDavid, and Patrick Kane. These mechanics may be counterintuitive and rarely taught, but they will drastically improve your stick handling and help you control the puck in all game scenarios, just like the NHL's Best.
If you've been trying to learn how to stickhandle and struggled to add that element of smoothness, or have hit a wall with your hockey training - this may be what you've been looking for. A lot hockey drills and skills miss the key mechanics that are fundamental to NHL player success and that's what Train 2.0 aims to fix. For example, it's easy to plant your feet on the ground in your garage and improve your stickhandling. But translating that to the ice is not so simple. Not only do we go over in-game scenarios, but we look at WHY you have to get your feet involved in all of your stickhandling mechanics to truly achieve world class level puck control. Check out our Precise Puck Control course if you want to continue learning how to keep defenders guessing every time.
Train 2.0 is the next evolution of hockey training. Built from insights gained from watching thousands of hours of NHL Superstar Mechanics and turning these mechanics into actionable hockey training and hockey drills for all levels. Whether you're just learning to play hockey, are on the cusp of making the jump to the next level, or are already an established pro, Train 2.0 will help you reach the next level.
Enjoy today's magic mechanic.
Once you see it, you can't un-see it.

Thanks for watching! What was your favorite part of today's video? Was it the No-stickhandle? The Kane Drag? Let us know in the comments below!

@bobapower99 Год назад

Love learning about the Kane drag. The similar motion to prepping for a shot makes a lot of sense. It's also refreshing to learn about the low probability of toe drags, when everyone is always trying it.

@bradoalfredo5203 6 месяцев назад

Adding the clips of the nhl players who are using the same methods in-game that you are teaching was an excellent touch. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

@laronda10 Год назад

The key to the kane drag is that the heel isnt as high off the ground giving more control and confidence within the move

Honestly man, I’ve been running hockey schools for about 15 years now in southern Ontario, and not many skills coaches are preaching these methods. You are breaking things down with effective video feedback so that it makes sense and Good on you for sharing these keys with the masses. Have conviction in the message you are spreading. I have taught, implemented, and seen first hand these exact skills and the results that follow lead to NHL caliber talent.

@Train2point0 10 месяцев назад

Couldn't agree more, thanks for the nice comment. Seeing our players results and using the exact movements the top players in the game are doing we know we are changing the game for skill development.

@CdnGulfa Год назад

Dude - great explanation of the progression for hands. I call the 2 foot skating "Russian Wide" to my players and tell them it's the skating style when stickhandling. I'm 48 and noticed it when I was young watching Canada vs Russia in the 80's. Your video is truly in my opinion one of the best stickhandling instructional video's out there. Well done Bud!

@Train2point0 Год назад

Fedorov back in the 90's comes to mind for me. Kuznetsov is a great example in the game today for a Russian with that width. Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the comment.

Terminology can be different across countries and different hockey communities. Main thing is being able to identify the movements. Glad you notice the feet.

You are teaching very advanced things, some beginners need to learn just how to protect the puck while moving forward, even if it's energy consuming, but it's basics!

@Train2point0 9 месяцев назад

Agree, we teach the simple things as well. Everyone is at different skill and age levels in hockey.

@Miroshen Год назад

Great vid! Love this content:) But there are TWO ways to go backhand to forehand and the one you left out is super common. “Roll out the back” is is when they let the puck roll from toe to heel and make a circular motion with the stick to go from back hand to forehand so that the puck has a spin on it that helps the player keep control. It also keeps the puck on the stick longer in the motion than just lifting up and over, and that helps increase control.

@@Train2point0 also, I want to tell you, I’ve watched every video you’ve put on RU-vid in the last 18 months. You inspired me to improve my hockey skills again. I’m 44 years old, pops played for the Bruins, and I was always skilled but never really applied myself. As I’ve gotten older I’ve had more trouble keeping up with the kids who have learned newer and better skating techniques. A year and a half ago I dropped down to a lower tier. But after watching your videos I began going to stick and puck sessions to try the new techniques out on my own. I am probably 20-25 percent faster bc of it, I move laterally so much better…. and I’m now playing in the pro am league which is two tiers higher and the best mens league in the state. Im playing against former pros, semi pros, and college players and I’m not only able to keep up now but I’m an impact player. Your stuff is awesome!

Looking for the video of you teaching that most players receive the pass with the open blade. Can you link me

@dan3307 Год назад

I was looking for videos on hockey footwork because it's often the least recognized yet most important part of the game. I love point number 4 here for that reason! Pavel Datsyuk was known for his incredible dekes, especially as the NHL moved into the shootout however people don't realize that players like Dats, McJesus, and Sid the Kid are amazing skaters first and puck handlers second. Anyone who follows hockey has seen the RU-vid vids of a 14 year old McDavid doing indoor crossover and stickhandling drills but I think the point here is he's indoor so he can focus on his footwork more than his hands. Also consider many hockey players start skating at under 5 but shooting and stick mechanics come way later - why? This is because children that young don't typically have the strength nor the dexterity to pull off dekes and snipes but they can move their feet. The better they get at skating, when it's time to develop hands, they're half way there. Thanks so much for pointing this out!!

Thank you, sorry what do you mean? I don't fully understand your question.

@scooter4572 Год назад

So the Kane move is a smooth heel drag (commonly called toe drag by TV annoucers) with a pull in. Good to know. It would be great to dive into this in more detail b/c it certainly is fun to execute, but difficult to develop

@longdog33 Год назад

no it's a toe drag.

@Train2point0 Год назад

Exactly, more circular.

@scooter4572 Год назад

I think a "V" shaped move is more practical. You are under pressure, so V shape is easier to execute

@fluntimes Год назад

Funny - I do the Kane drag and the Crosby move because I found it to be the lazy way to move the puck forwards, backwards and across! I'm not the best stickhandler, so these little shortcuts help.

All personal preference, have switched many times, currently NM29's curve.

@Train2point0 Год назад

NM29.

@tommy41111 Год назад

Best stick handling practice on ice is semi full speed skating while controlling the puck. Nothing fancy. Just skating fast and controlling the puck. The fancy stuff comes with hours and hours and weeks and weeks of putting in work

@Train2point0 Год назад

No question. Repetition + awareness. When training with The Downhill Skating System we like our players to use a puck most of the time.

@Train2point0 Год назад

@Jaymsie. Год назад

I feel like that “Crosby curl” is not really a specialized technique. If anyone drills sweeping the puck from forehand to backhand, sliding the puck beneath his stick, while slipping your blade over it, you need turn your blade out so your toe doesn’t contact his stick. And when you tap the puck through while your blade is turned out, your going to make contact with the puck more near its side, which will obviously cause it to spin, but the goal is not to make the puck spin, or to try and make it curl - which I don’t believe it really does, at least not in any practical sense. The goal is simply to move the puck from forehand to backhand, while simultaneously slipping your stick by without allowing your toe to make contact with the D’s stick.
